Logistics at its finest, but at least I get the joy of package tracking for just that little bit longer :)

I'm tempted to copy the number so I can track it along with you. :)

That's just wacky. But, it's the way fed-ex works.

The worst thing is when just that one time they require a signature and you are sleeping or not at home. Then you go check online and it says it's been rescheduled for next week delivery.

I'll have to admit, I didn't see that one coming. I mean the 'copter with a 240v charger. What are the odds of it blowing up like a MBP when used in the states?

The powersupply (charger) is (I believe) just a wall wart plug pack thing. If it DOES need 240, I have step up/down transformers that I am running some of my old stereo gear from Oz on - so I am covered either way.
Oh yeah - it arrived at the local USPS depot yesterday for ground shipping/delivery. Should have it today. Slowest delivery I have EVER had from Woot.
Oh yeah #2 - its day 2 of the WOOT OFF (http://woot.com)!!!!!!
